The Congregation of Teresian Carmelites (C.T.C) is the first indigenous religious congregation for women in Kerala. It was founded by the servant of God Mother Eliswa (Foundress), Sr Anna, and Sr Theresia (Co-Foundresses) on 13th February 1866. It was started with the aim of providing value oriented and integral formation through Education for all particularly for girls and women. Many of our school and colleges are functioning with the above aim and succeeding in it.
